Hi Sonam,
Salary break-up:
- Employee contributions
- Employer contributions
From the gross salary, Basic+DA can be 25-35% as per company policies. From the Basic+DA:
- HRA is 50% for metropolitan cities and 40% for non-metros
- Conveyance allowance is 800 per month. If above 800, it is taxable
- Medical allowance is 1250 per month. Above 1250 is taxable
- There can be other breakups such as Special allowance, Bonus, Incentive, etc., based on company norms.
Regarding deductions:
According to rules, if the employee's salary is more than 6500, PF has to be contributed. As you mentioned, 5000 rupees need not be considered if I'm not wrong. The employee has to contribute 12% of their Basic+DA. The employer also has to contribute 12%, and from this 12%, 8.33% goes to the employee's pension fund. Additionally, 0.5% is for EDLI charges, 1.1% for admin charges, and 0.1% for inspection charges. The mentioned three are employer's contributions. There are other deductions such as TDS, Professional tax (PT).
There are three types of pension plans:
- Superannuation pension
- Retirement pension
- Short service pension
Hope this info helps you. I'm not aware of Hyderabad state rules. If you have any doubts regarding this, ask me.
